Abstract

In this paper, a new categorical crystal structure for the quantum affine algebras is presented. We introduce the notion of extended crystals Bg(∞) for an arbitrary quantum group Uq(g), which is the product of infinite copies of the crystal B(∞). For a complete duality datum D in the Hernandez–Leclerc category Cg0 of a quantum affine algebra Uq (g), we prove that the set BD(g) of the isomorphism classes of simple modules in Cg0 has an extended crystal structure isomorphic to Bbgfin(∞). An explicit combinatorial description of the extended crystal BD(g) for affine type A(1)n is given in terms of affine highest weights.
